There are rounded smd pads - they look like traces. Press q on a pad.

If your pad is short enough (optimally its length is 0), the two round 
ends have their centers very close (or in the same point) so the two half 
circles form a circle.

An easy way to get this is to draw a short trace in pcb, convert it to 
element, press q on it and save the element then edit the file with a text 
editor to get the x;y coordinates of the line the same for both endpoints.

HTH,
